Step 2Changing BIOS Boot Order
We will need to change the boot order of your BIOS throughout this Instructable. Turn on your computer and while it turns on press the button to access the BIOS Setup Utility. Usually F2 or Delete. Navigate around the setup until you find something about the boot order. You can change it so if that first device is their, it will boot up from that device. If the device isn't their, it will keep going down the order/list until their is one with that device plugged in.
Also, when you boot up you might have an option to temporarily boot up from a certain device. You could use this if you want to only boot up from a device once.

Sometimes setting the BIOS to boot from USB can be tricky. My Acer laptop uses a phoenix BIOS and at first does not appear to support booting from the USB. However, if you go into the BIOS at startup with your ready prepared Ubuntu USB plugged in, go to boot order and there should be a + next to the hard drive. Select the hard drive and press ENTER - this should give a list of hard drives including the USB device. I believe this is similar on other BIOS set ups where the USB is treated an a hard drive.
